Privacy
Tacked is built privacy-first. The short version: the app stores everything on your Mac, sends nothing to us, and asks for as little as possible. This page explains what that means in detail.
What the Tacked app collects
Nothing. There is no telemetry, no analytics, and no crash reporting in version 1. You don't create an account to use Tacked.
What the Tacked app stores — and where
- Anchors, subtasks, and the daily log live as JSON files in
~/Library/Application Support/Tacked/on your Mac. - OAuth tokens for Notion and Trello (when you connect those sources) live in the same folder, with restrictive POSIX permissions. They never leave your machine.
- Apple Reminders access uses macOS EventKit; Tacked reads and writes through the system, no copy is kept on our side.
This website
tacked.app is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It sets no cookies, runs no third-party scripts, and uses no analytics. Cloudflare logs requests at the edge for abuse-prevention; we do not access or correlate those logs to identify visitors.
Connecting external sources
When you connect Notion or Trello, the OAuth handshake passes through a small Cloudflare Worker at oauth.tacked.app. The worker exchanges short-lived authorization codes for access tokens and forwards them to your app. We do not log tokens, scopes, or workspace identifiers. The worker source is part of the Tacked monorepo so you can read what it does.
If Tacked ever becomes paid
A future paid version will use a license-key model (no email/password account). The only data we would keep on a server is the license key itself, a hash of the email used at purchase, the plan, and the expiry date — exactly enough to validate that a key is active. No usage data, no content from your anchors.
Your rights (GDPR / revDSG)
Because v1 of Tacked stores no personal data on our side, there is nothing for us to export, correct or delete. If you have questions about this — or if you have purchased a license and want it removed from our records — write to [email protected].
Changes to this policy
If material changes happen, the date at the top of this page changes too, and existing users hear about it before any change takes effect.
